Costco stocks these now.... seems like people are buying them so the must be good for something, but I doubt it is good for drying cars.

And I thought I was the only one to see that. When a commercial advertisement has to use cheap tricks like that to prove an item works, you can basically call BS right then and there.

One thing I've learned is just because alot of people are buying something doesn't mean it's good, alot of people are stupid and gullible!

I was at Costco this past weekend and was somewhat tempted to buy a few of them. Glad I didn't now.

If you think Shamwow commercial is funny wait until you see Snuggies commercial. People actually buy those things.
